Nintendo's Reggie Fils-Aime: Very Optimistic

Wouldn't you like to be Reggie Fils-Aime right now. Things probably couldn't be better for the President of Nintendo of America - largely the face behind the popular "Wii" phenomenon - despite the global economic troubles.

While other executives speaking at the BMO Capital Markets Interactive Entertainment Conference today sprinkled words of concern into their otherwise upbeat addresses, Fils-Aime plainly and confidently said Nintendo is doing just fine, thank you very much.

Reuters talked to Fils-Aime about Wii availability, the DS handheld game, the future of 'packaged' games versus online games, and price cuts.
